58. OANN is not owned by AT&T, which was the false claim that the poster responded to.

All the pettifogging, subject sliding, banging on the table in lieu of facts, etc will not change that simple fact.

The first poster (who in the past made a similar false claim about AT&T owning Verizon) made a false claim, and the poster you replied to corrected it.

Nothing more, nothing less.

People are entitled to their own opinions but not their own facts.

I shall not stand by, when I see falsehoods being posted, and allow them to go unchallenged. I understand that my stance on this makes some here quite unhappy and at times combative. I cannot help that, nor will I change my modus operandi.
